Archangel Gym is martial arts school located in Belgrade, Serbia. We compete in MMA, kyokushin karate, muay thai, wushu sanda, grappling and kickboxing.
Four warriors. Four different legacies. A giant who dominated the ring. A Kyokushin master who shocked kickboxing. A tactical mastermind who changed MMA. A fearless pioneer who brought brutality and charisma.

We've been asked if this channel should expand beyond karate, so what do you think, what should be our focus in the future?
Let us know in the comments why and what do you want to see next.
OSU!

TODAY
Before karate became sport.
Before rules, belts, and points.
This upcoming documentary explores Matsumura SeitΕ β a lineage that preserved karate as it once was: direct, personal, and rooted in necessity.
Much of this knowledge was never written down.
It was hidden inside kata β waiting to be understood through bunkai.
The video is coming today. Members and Patreons already got access.
